Crystal Structure of a Humanized Fab (hu3S193) in Complex with the Lewis Y Tetrasaccharide
OverviewOverview
Antibodies targeting human epithelial carcinomas bearing Lewis Y (Le(y)), carbohydrate antigens provide a striking illustration of convergent immune, recognition. We report a 1.9A resolution crystal structure of the Fab of a, humanized antibody (hu3S193) in complex with the Le(y) tetrasaccharide, Fuc(alpha 1-->2)Gal(beta 1-->4)[Fuc(alpha 1-->3)]GlcNAc. Comparisons of, the hu3S193 and BR96 antibodies bound to Le(y) tumor antigens revealed, extremely similar mechanisms for recognition of the carbohydrate epitopes., Solvent plays a critical role in hu3S193 antibody binding to the Le(y), carbohydrate epitope. Specificity for Le(y) is maintained because a, conserved pocket accepts an N-acetyl group of the core Gal(beta, 1-->4)GlcNAc disaccharide. Closely related blood-group determinants (Le(a), and Le(b)) cannot enter the specificity pocket, making the Le(y), antibodies promising candidates for immunotherapy of epithelial cancer.
